Description

Demystifying OSHA: Training for Managers and Safety Officers is designed to end the dread and start the love ... well ok - love may be a bit strong but "hey - I can do this" is not. OSHA is almost always considered to be confusing and overwhelming but it doesn't have to be. OSHA is a complicated topic, learning about OSHA does not need to be. This course is packed FULL of important and relevant information and resources to start getting you and your practice up to speed and compliant. Each module has assignments that will help guide you through completing your safety manual as well as bring a new level of awareness of safety issues to your practice. When the course is complete, you will have set up a large majority of your safety manual.

This course is not a copy of other OSHA offerings that just tells you that you need become compliant, but instead gives you the tools and guidance to "get it done." This course is a veterinary practice specific offering, written and instructed by Chery Kendrick, DVM, MPVM (zoonotics), ASCP, MLT, a leading expert in the field. Throughout the course, Dr. Kendrick will be available for questions or concerns that may arise and will help guide you through the process of creating your practice Safety Manual.

Required Team Training: As good as this course is, training the practice Safety Officer is only one part of the equation. Each member of your practice team must understand that OSHA compliance is their responsibility as well. Some will consider the best part of this offering the free Team Training Course. Yes - FREE!

After completion of this main course, an added bonus is the Demystifying OSHA: Team Training course, provided at no extra charge to completed Safety Officers and their practice. We have designed this additional course to train every member of your team and provide each with a proof of training certificate After the completion of both courses, you AND your team will be trained in OSHA and compliant with required annual training! Team members may enroll in this course for up to 12 months after the main course is completed by the Safety Officer.

Scheduling: Another special feature is the 24/7/365 availability. Enrollments in this course are accepted at any time. Each student has 8 weeks to complete the main Safety Officer portion.

Safety Manual: The course enrollment fee includes a customizable Safety Manual. The manual is provided as a download. The download link is provided within the course to enrolled students.

With the completed safety manual, practical assignments, a leading OSHA expert at your fingertips and complementary team training, this course is too valuable to pass up! There is no time better to start than now!
